This is a pre owned Gibson Custom Shop ES-359 in Ebony Black. and it is a high-end semi-hollowbody electric guitar, known for its premium craftsmanship and striking design. Unlike the ES-339 or ES-335, which use laminated (plywood) wood for their bodies, the ES-359 is made from solid tonewoods, providing a richer, more resonant sound. This model features a smaller body size similar to the ES-339 but with added aesthetic and tonal upgrades, including luxurious binding, gold hardware, and the iconic split-diamond inlay on the headstock, typically seen on Gibson's Les Paul Custom models. Its stunning ebony black finish adds an extra level of sophistication, making it a standout both visually and sonically.

It comes with a case and COA. 

In terms of specs, the Gibson Custom Shop ES-359 boasts a 3-ply maple/poplar/maple top, back, and sides, contributing to a balanced tone with excellent clarity and warmth. The mahogany neck is topped with a 22-fret ebony fingerboard, offering smooth playability and durability. Equipped with Gibson's '57 Classic humbuckers, the guitar delivers vintage PAF-style tones, ranging from warm and smooth to bright and punchy, making it versatile for genres from jazz to rock. Additional features include Grover tuners, a Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a stopbar tailpiece, ensuring rock-solid tuning stability and excellent sustain. This model represents the pinnacle of Gibson's semi-hollowbody craftsmanship.
